Chapter 323: Chapter 203: The Color of the Livor Mortis Is Suspicious!

8:20 in the morning, the next day.

Jiang An arrived at the office door of the detective team captain.

”Knock! Knock! Knock!”

”Come in!”

Jiang An pushed the door open and walked in.

”Jiang An!”

Li Jian looked up, quite surprised.

”It’s not even working hours yet, why are you here so early today!”

”Yesterday, you were rushing back, you should take a good rest today.”

Jiang An smiled and said, ”Thank you for your concern, Mr. Li.”

He stretched a bit, ”I had a good night’s sleep and have fully recovered.”

Li Jian smiled, walked over, bent over to pick up a white ceramic cup from the coffee table, put in some tea leaves, and poured in boiling water.

”Have a cup of tea!”

Seeing the teacup handed over by Li Jian, Jiang An was a bit surprised.

He had come to the detective team captain’s office alone many times to report on work.

It was the first time Li Jian personally made tea.

Could it be because of the excellent performance of the detective team?

Jiang An promptly extended both hands to take the teacup.

”Thank you, Mr. Li!”

Li Jian pointed to the chair, ”Sit down!”

Then he turned back to his seat and picked up his teacup, blowing on the floating leaves.

”So, why did you come to me so early?”

Jiang An nodded and said, ”Last night, I took a close look at the dossier for case 7.24 and have some insights I want to report to you.”

”You’ve already looked through the dossier?”

Li Jian’s face showed a trace of surprise.

He originally planned to hand over the dossier to Jiang An this morning, letting him carefully organize it before proceeding to an in-depth discussion.

But unexpectedly, just after starting work, Jiang An proactively came to report the situation.

Li Jian smiled and said, ”I really didn’t expect it! Your working attitude is too proactive.”

”If everyone in the detective team had your enthusiasm, I probably wouldn’t be so busy.”

”There was nothing much to do after coming back last night, so I looked at it in the office.”

Li Jian nodded.

”Alright then!”

”Tell me your thoughts.”

Jiang An took a sip of tea, moistening his lips.

”Mr. Li, this death cause identification report is issued by the forensic identification center at Jiangcheng Medical University.”

”That’s it!”

”Regarding the identification of the cause of death, I don’t quite agree with their judgment.”

Upon hearing this, Li Jian suddenly became interested.

He put down the teacup in his hand and said, ”Oh?”

Li Jian did not directly refute the conclusion of the death cause identification.

After all, this identification report came from the forensic identification center at Jiangcheng Medical University, involving forensic professors in the process of cause of death identification.

Their conclusions are usually able to withstand scrutiny from the law and their peers.

Finally, he added, ”This identification report was made by forensic medicine professors.”

Jiang An knew this was a reminder from Li Jian, but he did not relinquish his opinions due to authority.

He said solemnly, ”I went through the dossier and found that the value of alcohol detection was merely close to the critical point of death.”

”For this kind of alcohol level just close to the critical point, I believe the credibility is not very high.”

”What do you mean?”

Li Jian asked.

”Because during the process of human decomposition, decay bacteria might also produce some ethanol components.”

”This could greatly affect the detection values of our instruments.”

Upon hearing this, Mr. Li’s mind immediately recalled the autopsy process of this corpse.

In this case, the corpse was discovered on July 24th.

Due to both families being out of town and unable to arrive immediately, the corpse examination work was delayed to July 27th.

On July 25th, a malfunction occurred in the refrigerated morgue, being without power for nearly 20 hours, leading to relatively severe decomposition of the corpse.

After a brief recollection, Li Jian turned to ask, ”Does decomposition have such a large impact on alcohol detection values?”

Jiang An nodded.

”I saw during the examination of this couple, the corpse had already decomposed and turned black.”

”This is precisely the result of a massive proliferation of decay bacteria within the organ systems.”

”In my view, during the decomposition process with bacterial proliferation, it must be accompanied by the production of many toxins and ethanol-like substances.”

”Therefore, for the result of this value, I think it should not be blindly trusted.”

Just a few simple words, Mr. Li quickly understood the meaning behind them.

”You mean the alcohol concentration in the deceased’s body was lower than this measured value.”

Jiang An nodded.

”I think so!”

”Currently, the examination techniques cannot determine exactly how much lower.”

After long contemplation, Mr. Li frowned tightly.

”For this corpse, the deceased’s body showed no external injuries and no presence of sedatives, organophosphorus or other toxic substances.”

”Since everyone’s tolerance to alcohol can differ, is it possible that these two people couldn’t handle their drink even if the alcohol level in their bodies wasn’t high, thus resulting in death?”

Jiang An shook his head.

”If it was alcoholic poisoning leading to death, a noticeable state of intoxication occurs before the deceased.”

”However, from the investigation materials I reviewed in the dossier, when friends sent them back, the walking posture of the two showed no obvious anomalies.”

”Moreover, I looked closely at the original crime scene photos.”

”Both of them were lying on the bed without any clothes, with a condom package on the side of the bed and a used condom.”

”This fully indicates that they had intercourse the night before.”

”Imagine if both of them were significantly drunk, how could they have the ability to consummate the act?”

”Therefore, from this perspective, I believe they weren’t in a state of severe intoxication when they returned.”
